Hardware Configuration
Switch and Jumper Settings
Overview
Several switch and jumper settings are required for proper operation of the Dual PPI. The following
settings are set during the system commissioning and programming and should not be changed. If
replacing an existing Dual PPI for maintenance purposes, be sure to replicate the switch and jumper
setting of the card being replaced. Refer to Figure 1 on page 10 for the switch and jumper locations.
Board Address Rotary Switch (SW1) Settings
This switch is used in conjunction with SW4 Position 1 to determine the board addresses used by the
®
MCU to access the Dual PPI. Since the Dual PPI provides access to two distinct Page/Party
zones, the
Dual PPI occupies two separate board addresses – one for Zone A and one for Zone B (assuming that
Zone B is enabled). The board addresses for Zone A and Zone B are defined below (expressed as
hexadecimal values):
Zone A Board Address
Board Address Example:
2 A 0
/ / /----------Always zero
Equals 2 when SW4 Position 1 is OPEN--------------/ /
Equals 0 when SW4 Position 1 is CLOSED----------/ /
/
Set by SW1----------------------------------------------------------------/
Zone B Board Address
Board Address Example:
3 A 0
/ / /----------Always zero
Equals 3 when SW4 Position 1 is OPEN--------------/ /
Equals 1 when SW4 Position 1 is CLOSED----------/ /
/
Set by SW1----------------------------------------------------------------/
Please note that if Zone B is disabled (SW4 Position 2 is CLOSED), then the Dual PPI will only occupy
the Zone A board address (the Zone B board address would then be available for use by other cards in the
card rack).

Board ID Rotary Switches (SW2 and SW3) Settings
Pub. 42004-729L2A
These switches are used in conjunction with SW4 Positions 4 and 6 to determine the Board ID values for
Zone A and Zone B. Since the Dual PPI provides access to two distinct Page/Party
®
zones, the Dual PPI
provides two separate Board ID values – one for Zone A and one for Zone B (assuming that Zone B is
enabled). The Board ID values for Zone A and Zone B are defined below (expressed as hexadecimal
values):
Zone A Board ID
Board ID Example:
0 1
/ /
Equals 0 when SW4 Position 4 is OPEN--------------/ /
Equals 1 when SW4 Position 4 is CLOSED----------/ /
/
Set by SW2----------------------------------------------------------------/
Zone B Board ID
Board ID Example:
0 3
/ /
Equals 0 when SW4 Position 6 is OPEN--------------/ /
Equals 1 when SW4 Position 6 is CLOSED----------/ /
/
Set by SW3----------------------------------------------------------------/
Please note that SW4 Positions 4 and 6 (Extended Board ID A/Extended Board ID B) will only function
when SW4 Position 3 (Board Type Select) is in the OPEN position (“Dual PPI” Board Type is selected.)
Otherwise, the upper hexadecimal digit of the Board ID values for Zone A and Zone B will be forced to
®
be “0”. Also, note that each Page/Party
zone associated with a given card rack must be assigned a
unique Board ID value to allow it to be clearly identified by the MCU. For sake of simplicity, the Board
ID values are typically set to match the zone numbers as defined in the system.

Board Configuration DIP Switch (SW4) Settings
Board Configuration DIP Switch SW4 contains eight positions that control various aspects of board
operation in the associated system. The function of each position is detailed below.
Position 1: Board Address Range Select
This switch is used in conjunction with rotary switch SW1 to determine the board addresses used by the
MCU to access the Dual PPI. Refer to the “Board Address Rotary Switch (SW1) Settings” section on
page 2 for more information.
Position 2: Zone B Disable
This switch may be used to “hide” Zone B from the MCU. This feature may be desirable in cases where
only one of the two available zones on the Dual PPI will be utilized by the system. Set the switch
according to the following table:
OPEN
CLOSED
Zone B is Enabled.
Zone B is Disabled (not visible to the MCU)

Page Balance Select (Zone A) Jumper (P6) Settings
This jumper allows the Dual PPI’s internal page balance for Zone A to be disabled in cases where use of a
page balance external to the Dual PPI is desired. Note that if an external page balance is used, however, it
must be located in proximity to the card rack. In general, this jumper should be left in the “EN” position
(internal page balance enabled). Set the jumper according to the following table:

This jumper allows the Dual PPI’s internal page balance for Zone B to be disabled in cases where use of a
page balance external to the Dual PPI is desired. Note that if an external page balance is used, however, it
must be located in proximity to the card rack. In general, this jumper should be left in the “EN” position

Tips on Using a Dual PPI to Replace Two 69255-001 PPI Boards
• The first step that should be performed when using a Dual PPI to replace two 69255-001 PPI boards
is to decide which 69255-001 PPI board will be mapped to Zone A of the Dual PPI and which will be
mapped to Zone B. Hereafter, based on this mapping, the two 69255-001 PPI boards will be referred
to as the “Zone A PPI” and “Zone B PPI.”
• When setting the board address for the Dual PPI, use the following conversion table as a guide:
Switch on

It is important to note that the Dual PPI occupies two distinct board addresses. Therefore, the installer
must ensure that these two board addresses do not conflict with any other cards installed in the card rack.
To prevent this, it may be necessary to change the board address of another card in the card rack. Refer to
the “Board Address Rotary Switch (SW1) Settings” section on page 2 for more information regarding
Dual PPI board address assignment.
• When setting the Board ID values for the Dual PPI, use the following conversion table as a guide:

Notes
SW2 S2 on “Zone A PPI” Assigns Board ID for Zone A
SW3 S2 on “Zone B PPI” Assigns Board ID for Zone B

1. Remove the 69609-001 Dual PPI from its carton. Be sure to check that power is disconnected to the
card rack assembly prior to replacement.
2. Verify that the switch and jumper settings described in the Switch and Jumper Settings section are set
in accordance with the instructions in your system manual.
3. Remove existing Dual PPI from card rack assembly.
4. Install the replacement Dual PPI as described below.
Align the PCBA into the upper and lower tracks of the assigned slot. Slide the PCBA towards the
rear of the card rack until it comes in contact with the backplane connector. Firmly press on the front
bezel until the PCBA is seated. Secure to the card rack by tightening the two screws located on the
front bezel (See Figure 1).
5. Apply power to card rack assembly.
6. After a brief delay, the On Line LEDs on the Dual PPI will illuminate for all configured zones.
7. The RTS LEDs flash continuously if SmartSeries stations are configured to communicate with the
Dual PPI.
8. The EOL FAULT LEDs should NOT illuminate. These LEDs only illuminate when an End-of-Line

Page Balance
The Page Balance is used to set the line loading of the page zones page line. After all stations are
connected to the card, the Page Balance is set. Use a station connected directly to the Dual PPI.
Squeeze the pressbar on the handset and blow steadily into the mouth piece. Listen to the sidetone in
the receiver. Adjust the Page Balance until a minimal side tone is obtained in the receiver. The Page
Balance does not require readjustment unless 10 or more stations are added to the zone.
OTE: If a handset station is not available for use as indicated above, perform the following steps:
N
• Connect a true impedance meter to the page line of the appropriate Dual PPI.
• Adjust the line balance potentiometer to a reading as close to 33 ohms as possible
11. Set the monitor level adjustments for Zone A and Zone B, if used:
Monitor Level
The Monitor Level can be adjusted during system start-up. This is required only
